No, people are mocking you because you see fit to be a bigot and then claim redress for offence caused by an ad considered prejoratory towards persons of a certain class. Even if the Broadcasting Standards Authority was absolutely right in its ruling, it still wouldn't change the fact that you're a fucking hypocrite and the worst kind at that.

BTW, you keep dreaming that major shockwaves have been sent through the advertising industry, since the all-important C. Irwin made his supreme sacrifice! Now that the ad has been withdrawn, that will be the end of the matter, as is almost always the case. If an advertising executive did a cost and benefit analysis over the screening of an offensive ad and found that things will be in his/her favour, I doubt a slap on the wrist from the BSA will be a deterrant.

Edit: Just for you...

Ok, so let me get this straight. People try to mock me, I succinctly and politely reply (as opposed to 99% of the respondents in this thread), and the only comeback you have to this is 'waaaahhhhh don't talk to me like that!'?
Don't ignore it like that. Seriously, you are hugely arrogant wanker. Where do you get this tall poppy thing from? Nobody even realised that you treated your letter writing victory as such a huge achievement until you started belittling peoples choice of career*. Stop crying 'tall poppy', it's a load of crap. No one is jealous of your letter writing ability. Until you started blowing your own trumpet, we all though you were a hypocritical wanker for calling people niggers and then turning around and crying foul over an ad that mocks pale freckly people. Now we think you're an arrogant git as well



*which suggests strongly that your think your career is above everyone elses.

Cyclonic can you read? I never meant to use the term nigger in the first place. If you think people are mocking me for being a bigot you lack even the most basic of social observation skills.

I guess you've been waiting to jump on my case after I owned you with the lao wai comments. Back to the events at hand. If you can't understand hyperbole when you read it... please don't bother commenting in future.

All actions in life are decided by a cost benefit analysis, so really, behind all your literary drivel, a cloud of useless words, you are saying nothing. Of course that will happen. All I am saying is that the potential cost has increased and the potential benefit has decreased.

lol. Such a bitter response from one who is normally king of flames! No, I think you're just taking it too far. Harden up.

I don't think it's a huge achievement at all. I'm just contrasting it with the achievements of the drones who have participated on this thread

Right, you just KNOW what people's motivations are? You seem to suffer from some terminal case of circular logic and an obsessive megalomaniacal complex. You think people are mocking you because they are jealous of you and therefore it is the case?

If I do have a problem with you, it's with the fact that you're a hypocrite. If you aren't trying to climb up some imaginary pedestal, why make the IT diploma reference, when you know full well that not all who post here work in IT? Heck, what a surprise... you haven't come up with some lawyer joke yet.

Nice try at talking your way out of using a racial slur. The NZ Medical Council ought be interested in your outstanding character before they decide to allow you to be registered as a doctor. I mean, since you KNOW that we are jealous of you, I guess our knowledge of you must be just as good, right?

PS: Anyway, I'm tired and have no more to add. Keep the rationalisation going and some deluded fool might believe you!

Of course you do. You've been saying just that for the last few posts. Or is this your strange way of admitting that you're wrong?

Of course you think it's a huge achievement, you've just been saying that it's a bigger thing than people that aspire to an IT degree. Hence why everyone here thinks you're arrogant.
If you truly believe it's not such a huge achievement, you'll retract that tall poppy crap.

It's actually quite an apt response. I flame people and can handle being flamed back. Not too long ago there was an ad that I could've complained about and it stood a good chance of being discontinued. In a nutshell, the ad made out that the people of my ancestors home country are stupid. Which is like saying that my ancestors and, by association, myself are stupid. Now did I complain about it? HELL NO! I got over it!


BTW, this coruba ad, when did you see it playing? I know you saw it during a movie, but what time was the movie screening?

Do you realise how easily manipulated you are cyc? Sigh.

I think people have forgotten the context of the recent comments. These are in a thread created with the sole purpose of trying to embarrass me for the amusement of others. I have easily turned the topic on its head, having ruffled the feathers of the most flame weary opponents... and now these people are crying about it? Perhaps you shouldn't have participated in the thread in the first place :)

Everyone knows I am a fluffy bunny of warmth of sympathy for our dear nzgames. but I am teh mighty flame warrior as well! choose your opponents carefully ;D

It was almost a year ago now so quite hard to remember. I think it was during one of those channel 2 kid's movies that are on ~6:30-8:30pm? That was one of the things that pissed me off most.

Likewise I think the NZ Law Society would be interested to know that you endorse the sexual assault of women, treat such acts flippantly, and trade pictures of said acts on the internet. lol.

This is what I find curious. You claim that it will teach kids to hate moranges and that it was screen during a kids movie. Yet, the Advertising Codes of Practice say liquor advertisements shall not be shown between 6pm and 9pm. This is something that liquor advertisers VERY rarely violate.

Maybe I'm wrong CCS. It was nearly a year ago. I saw the ad, I spent 20 minutes writing an email to the Advertising Standards Complaints authority, I got a letter from them a few days later (they need my signature), sent that off... then forgot about it.

Yes, really. The fact that you've given up defending yourself indicates quite strongly that YOU HAVEN'T GOT A LEG TO STAND ON.
Maybe it's only now that you realise what an arrogant toss you are.

Perhaps you are wrong, but you seemed pretty certain of it before.

Still, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that it was in a later time slot. So that invalidates your assertion that kids will see the ad and start mocking redhead kids.

I think you missed the point. You have a choice, I have a choice. You had a choice to complain, you didn't. I had a choice to complain, and I did.

My earlier statements regarding your choice were simply meant 'ok, you had a choice to complain.. you didn't... that's ok'

Moo, it would appear that -- your "intelligent adult" status notwithstanding -- you have, for some reason, changed the email address in your user profile to something that doesn't exist. Thus, when the board software attempted to confirm your new address and emailed a verification message to that address, that email bounced. So the board automatically set your account status to "USER AWAITING EMAIL CONFIRMATION" and locked it out.

So, instead of the Great and Terrible Anti-Morange Tall-Poppy Conspiracy, this is simply...

This thread has seriously sucked from like, page 2. While originally I thought the topic was pretty funny, after seeing Moo's explanation I thought it seemed fair enough. Now it looks as if anyone with a grudge or anyone who reads Fark is coming out of the woodwork. Seriously, out of the 50 or so owned macros on here about 3 were funny and/or original.

Though Moo self-owning his account was pretty funny :>
